Novaya Gazeta is known as one of the “only truly critical newspapers with national influence in Russia today” by the Committee to Protect Journalists. Muratov often reported on sensitive topics including human rights violations, high-level government corruption, and abuse of power. His political beliefs, such as supporting freedom of press, has led to conflict with fellow journalists and the government.
In response, Kiriyenko sued Novaya Gazeta and Rozhnov for libel, and in passing judgement in favour of Kiriyenko the court ordered Novaya Gazeta to retract all publications relating to the accusations and went on to say that the newspaper “is obliged to publish only officially proven information linking Mr Kiriyenko with embezzlement.”
After Novaya Gazeta published an investigation by journalist Denis Korotkov about Russian businessman Yevgeny Prigozhin,in October 2018, Denis Korotkov and the editor-in-chief at Novaya Gazeta were the target of threatening deliveries of a severed ram’s head and funeral flowers to the paper’s offices. The style of the threat resembled others by Kremlin-linked Yevgeny Prigozhin.

After publication, the Chechen Government denied the existence of persecutions in the Republic.In 2003, Yury Shchekochikhin died after investigating a corruption scandal where high-ranking Russian officials were involved.Anna Politkovskaya was assassinated in her apartment block in 2006 after spending her career covering Chechnya and the Northern Caucasus.
